Have you tried using pwd and ls to figure out what directory you're in and what's inside your current directory, respectively?

shut plover
#

Use the cd command (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cd_(command)) to change your directory, and use pwd and ls to verify where you are. Once the output of your ls command includes install.sh , and pwd tells you that you're in the directory of your cloned project, then you're in the right place. Now, that's when you can run chmod +x install.sh (it's a bit odd the instructions ask you to run chmod +x when ideally that file should have been set that way when the developers pushed up the file)

The cd command, also known as chdir (change directory), is a command-line shell command used to change the current working directory in various operating systems. It can be used in shell scripts and batch files.

oh wait i got there but now it’s doing this

shut plover
#

You're using Windows Powershell, which is not the same as MacOS's Unix Terminal, which your instructions specify

the macos thing is unrelated i’m sorry i left that in by accident

shut plover
#

Windows should have an equivalent command as chmod. What chmod does is change the file executable permissions

#

Also, it doesn't look like you're in the right place since you're in your Downloads/ folder, and not in your cloned project

i was doing this on wsl before but it just does this

#

You need to unzip that zip file

#

and then you cd into it

THANK YOU

#

still not working

shut plover
#

You have to find the install.sh file yourself in that unzipped folder via the commands cd, pwd, and ls

distant flame
#
